HOLIDAY WEEK: WHAT TO WEAR TO A CASUAL HOLIDAY GET-TOGETHER.

Welcome to the first day of “Holiday Week” here on Gold-Hatted Lover!

As the holiday season gets into full swing with Thanksgiving just days away, this week I am sharing looks for every type of holiday event you might have: casual, semi-casual, and formal, a few gift guides, and finally, starting Friday and all throughout the weekend I will be sharing the best of the sales.  Consider me your one-stop-shop and be sure to pop in from time to time for updates!  I’ve also added a “Holiday Shop” tab above where you can shop all my holiday picks including outfits and gifts.  I will keep updating it all throughout the season and adding more items so be sure to check it out frequently.  The sooner you finish up that shopping, the sooner you can enjoy the season without that stress looming over your head, am I right?!

To start things off… a casual holiday look.  There are so many festive get-togethers during this season that are really casual – cookie swaps, white elephant parties, girls nights in, gift exchanges at work, even just running to the store to pick up a wreath! – but it can be hard to find the balance of casual and festive without reaching for that slightly tacky sweater or generic red and green.  Enter the flannel button-down!  Cozy and seasonally-appropriate, grab one in a red or green hue for a festive touch that you can wear all throughout winter.  Add a bow tie and over-the-knee boots for a feminine spin and you’re done!  

Be sure to tune back in tomorrow as I share a look for those semi-casual events, where you know you can’t wear jeans but a dress would be too much – I’ve got just the look for you!
